I'm a Ph.D. Candidate in Psychology with a concentration in Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience at George Mason University (R1), conducting research in Dr. Martin Wiener’s spatial, temporal, action, representation (STAR) lab.
My work includes investigating the neural mechanisms involved in human time and numerosity perception. Understanding how these magnitudes are processed is a pathway to understanding how we perceive and interact with our environment. Before the Ph.D., I earned my M.A. in Psychological Research at Texas State University where I studied visual attention, perspective-taking, language processing, and mental workload. |
Why Study Time & Numerosity Perception?Identifying the neural correlates of time could help us answer one of the most debated questions — What makes us human? Our perception of magnitudes (e.g., time, number) is fundamental to how we make predictions and interact with our environment. Looking at different numerosities (i.e., numbers of items) changes how we perceive and use time. |
